This day was truly an outward celebration of family, friends, and love. I've been working with Cecily and Richard for almost 3 years and we finally got to capture their wedding day on NYE. From the amazing team of vendors, to the beautiful couple, I can easily say that this wedding day will be a day that I will always come back to.
